For both of us! I was on the south side of the bridge watching them go under. I noticed some people standing on that bank, must've been you. I have a video of it here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DSuEdZ5gbl0
D708 goes under the bridge at the 2:00 mark.
My favorite part of that video is your hand in front of the camera at 1:39. :lol:
